    Feel like an additional voice other than killer mike might’ve been helpful but he has a good message.

    bottoms was pissed though. Liked her showing the emotion about it

    I had completely forgotten about the protests until I kept hearing nonstop sirens and low flying helicopters after midnight last night. It’s a shame people had to take advantage of the protests for their own gains to loot and destroy businesses. Bottoms and killer mike did a great job, but the people looting don’t care about what they or anyone else has to say.

    Update:

    We were supposed to go have a social distancing backyard happy hour at our friends new home but it’s been canceled because some of the women are too scared to leave their houses.

    Awful disingenuous to frame it as if those people were in some way on the fence before last night. Those people have always thought they made the right decision and it's shameful to act as if some opportunity to change their minds or make them reconsider things was squandered last night.

    Seems like things have gone well so far. APD seems to be handling things much better than pretty much everything else I’ve seen.

    Just glad the local Atlanta ig models showed their courage posting IG stories justifying looting to be perfectly fine.... BS aside, hard to find someone that loves Atlanta more than Killer Mike, he did a damn good job with his speech.

    I got the emergency notice on my phone at 9:12. Kind of hard to abide by a curfew if the alert comes after the fact. And APD were just arresting people left and right. I’m sick of this shit.

    I had birthday dinner plans at 8pm. At 7 I got a text saying that a curfew at 9 was canceling my dinner.

    They need to do a better job of communicating that next time.

    “Protestors”

    I’d be pretty pissed if I was one of the protestors that was conflated with this looting.

    Yeah. I’m not mad that they were canceled. I’m just saying it seemed like no communication from the city l. As someone said the notification came after in the curfew was in effect so people could have been out and arrested and had no idea.

    Think we’re going to try and eat somewhere midweek. From what I’ve read/follow, everyone seems to be very happy with the precautions put in place.

    Yeah, I think Kemp mentioned some stuff about higher out of state traffic than usual, it gave the impression that's what made up most of the looters.

    I’m guessing/hoping Killer Mike said something to the effect of “looters aren’t protestors?”

    He’s been working on this messaging for years, especially over in Decatur.

    We sat on the patio at U-Joint in Oakhurst last Saturday a 3p. Only 6 tables distanced and you ordered at the window. Went great and pulled up my mask when I went to order and when food was delivered. Let it down while sitting and eating.

    I ate at Marcel last weekend. Only difference I noticed was every other table was open (deliberate), and all staff wore masks and gloves.

    Went on a run to beat curfew. National guard is out in full force at Lenox Mall and something was going on outside Blue Hookhah lounge. About 10 cop and a big argument in the parking lot across the street.
